Luke Cage is Tired of Buying New Clothes in Just-Released Teaser

The new teaser for Netflix’s upcoming superhero show Luke Cage is here, and it features Cage (Mike Colter) giving a serious beating to some gangsters who clearly haven’t done their research.

“I guess you guys haven’t heard about me, have you?” he asks with a sigh as they draw their guns on him, and proceeds to just stand there while bullets ricochet off of his indestructible skin. His outfit, now riddled with holes, isn’t so lucky. “I’m about sick of having to buy new clothes,” he says, and the teaser ends there, keeping the rest of the encounter a mystery (we can assume he probably walks away from the incident unscathed, though).

The fight takes place in what appears to be Daredevil’s boxing ring, although there’s a slim chance Daredevil himself will appear in the show. Still, all three of Netflix’s Marvel heroes—Daredevil, Cage, and Jessica Jones—have been connected so far, so there’s no telling what surprises this new series could hold.

The teaser reveals a more playful side of Cage after the official trailer that was released earlier this month. The series will pick up after the events of Jessica Jones, as Cage is dragged out of the shadows to confront a past he’s tried to forget and save the city he loves.
